Dr. Howard Paul serves as the Associate Professor and Interim Chair for the Department of Information Systems at Monte Ahuja College of Business, Cleveland State University. His academic background includes a Ph.D. in Information Systems and Technology Management from the prestigious Joseph M. Katz Graduate School of Business at the University of Pittsburgh. Prior to his doctoral work, he completed both an MBA and a B.E. in Computer Science at Tamkang University in Taiwan.

Dr. Paul believes that mastering AI is no longer a niche skill but a foundational competency essential for every IS professional. The entire IS department faculty share this forward-thinking vision for information systems education in the age of generative AI. They recognize that integrating AI skills across Business Data Analytics, IT Management, IT Application Development, and Cybersecurity curricula is essential for preparing today's IS students for tomorrow's challenges. By embedding AI tools throughout coursework, the department advocates an approach where technology enhances learning depth, expands exploratory capabilities, and elevates both student performance and professional productivity.

Under this guidance, the department equips students with the AI competencies needed to thrive in an increasingly intelligent digital landscape.
